Hi there! In case you didn't know, I created newgrounds. No, it wasn't made by some giant company - just some dumb kid who now has help. I also co-founded the Behemoth; we made Alien Hominid and Castle Crashers. Icon by Pegosho, banner by OmenaKettu.

Castle Crashers PAX & Fans

Posted by TomFulp - September 9th, 2008


The Castle Crashers booth at PAX was a huge success this year! We pretty much sold out of everything we brought, which is especially nice at the end of the show when we need to pack everything up and ship it back.


Every year at PAX, I end up buying a few games at the Pink Godzilla booth. This year, I bought Rhythm Tengoku 2 (DS) and PC Engine Best Collection. PEBC is three classic PC Engine games on one PSP disc: Galaxy Fraulein Yuna 1&2, and Galaxy Policewoman Sapphire. Yuna is some sort of interactive story game featuring girls in space suits; completely worthless crap. Policewoman Sapphire, however, is an awesome vertical shooter, "the best shooter ever for the PC Engine", according to Nathan from Pink Godzilla.

That night, the guys from Pink Godzilla toilet papered our booth before meeting us for dinner.

Back to Castle Crashers - someone is making a Street Fighter vs Castle Crashers MUGEN!

Despite the network and save issues (a title update is on the way), the fan response to Castle Crashers has been totally amazing. We received this email today:


To Tom fulp.

To Dan paladin.


It apologizes.

The photograph of the papercraft was suddenly sent.


I was glad and it was exciting.


My name is LESQUA.

I am Japanese.

It works at the game company in Japan.


The game that you made is very interesting and wonderful.

It is impressed and the papermodel has been made instinctively.


Please hold out in the future.

It looks forward.


Thank you.


You can see a picture of the papercraft below, along with a picture taken at a Trader Joe's in California!

Castle crashers are awesome!

And I don't even have the game. :)

I think the red knight got his ass handed to him by the looks of it lol.
But it looked cool.

Man... Ken kicks Red Castle Crashers ass.

Whoa whoa LOL! We need a biger pic of that image from Trader Joes. Hahah!

I know... Our f'ing blog system only allows one pic and we have a height limit. We gotta change that. :)

lol castle crashers is conquering every corner of our society XD

You commented on the wrong comment up there, haha ^
Anyway, seems great. I wish I had a 360 just so I could play Castle Crashers, seems like a great game. Just the fact that it was made totally in Flash too, just so inspiring.
Keep up the epic work, Mr. Fulp.

Fixed. :)

Man, how'd that wind up at Trader Joe's? Does Dan's friend own the place or something?

By the way Tom, as your manager i think i should receive like... 42% (thats about right?) of all of your earnings... so my paypal me, dog.

I'll be waiting.

whats with that trader joe picture? who drew those or what were they doing there?

Those paper Castle Crashers should be available in the store.

That is one awesome Castle Crashing Mugen!

Have you ever considered holding a NG meet in the US south east?
I know if you did, my 'south' would rise again.

Uhh..... cool.

The Trader Joe's stuff was a complete surprise - a dude in Glendale, CA took the picture and sent it to me, then sent it in to Kotaku. It's the Trader Joe's in Burbank.

i cant believe they toilet papered ur booth then just went to dinner with u just like nothing happened

aha! i was there! remember me? lol you probably dont :3 but whatever i loled at your t-ped booth

Castle Crashers vs Street Fighters Mugen? That is extreme in a good radical way! I guess you will keep us up to date about this, right Tom?
